Does anyone recognize these vintage Honda rotors and what bike they came from? Thanks!

I first though they were early Goldwing rotors, but they are not.
Are you sure they are Honda rotors? Most Honda rotors have a "rivet" between the outer and the inner section of the rotor. The only pre-1979 Hondas with dual rotors were the GL and the CB750. Their rotors had an additional rib on the "spoke" between the holes.
I will put some money on a Yamaha Virago XV920 rotor :think:

I don't the six-bolt pattern is Honda either.

I've had them laying around in the shop for years and the curiosity finally got the best of me. It looks like the rotor fairy's left them for me! The Yamaha rotors certainly appear to be a match, Thanks guys!
